Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 3rd Test | Sharjah | 18/01/14 | Day 3

[Badsha]

Don't understand how that was out.

 

[Kiri]

Looked like it hit the pad. Nothing on the bat

It's was blatantly obviously obvious. There was an explicit sound exactly as the ball passed the bat.

 

[Boi]

Azhar will stil strike at a better rate than Shehzad. I sense a run a ball ton here.

 

[Badsha]

Azhar Ali... oh boy.

 

[Kianig89]

poor decision by umpire

 

[Badsha]

It's was blatantly obviously obvious. There was an explicit sound exactly as the ball passed the bat.

I thought the sound was bat hitting the pad

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Lets take a wild guess, how many deliveries before Azhar Ali gets off the mark ??

 

[Boi]

The ball didn't even hit the pad lol

 

[Asif321]

Azhar Ali is the most boring batsmen in this line up

 

[CrowingRooster]

Keeps the yorker out

 

[CrowingRooster]

114-1 after 49

 

[Kianig89]

Azhar's comeback innings this

 

[Kiri]

Pakistan, please collapse and this will be all over rather quickly.

 

[saiyan0312]

shezad should take the initiative and lead the partnership with a good run rate.

 

[Kianig89]

Ahmed showing great temperament here

 

[Badsha]

Never mind... that was clearly out.

 

[Kianig89]

it missed everything horrible decision

 

[Boi]

Azhar using his feet.

 

[hur rizvi]

Two of the poorest players of spin

 

[Badsha]

If you thought that was Tuk Tuk, wait till azhar gets in the groove

 

[saiyan0312]

nearly gone azhar.

 

[Badsha]

Two of the poorest players of spin

Shehzad isn't that bat. Azhar Ali on the other hand is horrible at spin

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

stop the press azhar ali striking at 50

 

[Osman]

khurram manzoor makes me cringe.....celebrates 50 like a 100...thats the standards these guys set :face palm: feel like slapping him

 

[Kianig89]

Azhar will adjust in till tea

 

[Osman]

and now the coward azhar ali will ensure a draw

 

[hur rizvi]

shezad should take the initiative and lead the partnership with a good run rate.

It's easy to show temperament on this dull pitch, Pakistan needs some quick runs, they need him to show him some flair now

 

[Badsha]

Who won the ODI series between us and Sri Lanka?

 

[saiyan0312]

45 overs remaining and we need around 160 more runs to make it a dominant day.

 

[saiyan0312]

Who won the ODI series between us and Sri Lanka?

we did 3-2

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Azhar striking at 60+ right now . The world surely is about to end I presume

 

[Badsha]

we did 3-2

Seriously something has happened to my memory.

 

[CrowingRooster]

123-1 after 51

 

[CrowingRooster]

Drinks

 

[Aman]

Pakistan to me would be better if they forgot about the WTC and just focused on winning games, rather than playing conservatively to avoid losing points.

 

[Badsha]

Drinks on.


I took a double doze of nyquil and couldn't sleep but this batting is making me sleep.

 

[hur rizvi]

Good reverse swing available if SL use it properly they can spark a collapse in this session

 

[Kianig89]

Panni ki break

 

[Boi]

Pakistan to me would be better if they forgot about the WTC and just focused on winning games, rather than playing conservatively to avoid losing points.

We'd get embarassed at the WTC with this sort of team and approach.

 

[Kianig89]

:ahmed answering

 

[CrowingRooster]

It's was blatantly obviously obvious. There was an explicit sound exactly as the ball passed the bat.

Might have been but not as blatantly as you're making it seem

 

[Kianig89]

this time till new ball is the best period to bat capitalize it

 

[Kianig89]

Rehman Ajmal Talha Junaid long tail again

though Talha can use the long handle

 

[CrowingRooster]

Get a quick single

 

[saiyan0312]

this time till new ball is the best period to bat capitalize it

Tell that to the batsmen. I dont think they are even thinking about capitalizing anything.,

 

[hur rizvi]

this time till new ball is the best period to bat capitalize it

SL should not take the new ball

 

[Kianig89]

Trail by 303

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Hope Azhar does well to keep Hafeez out.

 

[CrowingRooster]

125-1 after 52

 

[CrowingRooster]

Hope Azhar does well to keep Hafeez out.

[Kianig89]

Tell that to the batsmen. I dont think they are even thinking about capitalizing anything.,

both have to secure their place that happens when you chop n change

 

[Kianig89]

field placing has reached new level of defencism

 

[saiyan0312]

man if you think about it we got four players playing for their spot. azhar,khurram,shezad and shafiq.

 

[Kianig89]
